FOUR ITALIAN ARTISTS

LARIA HAS BEEN DESCRIBED BY SOME OF OUR CLIENTS THUS:

‘I LIKE THE WAY LARIA IS IN THE AIR AROUND MY PARTNER WHEN SHE MOVES’

‘I LIKE HOW LARIA CHANGES WHEN WE MAKE LOVE’

‘IT IS A ROUNDED SCENT. IT STARTS VIBRANT AND THEN IT CURVES’

‘IT IS NATURE FROM A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW’

WE VISUALIZED THESE COMMENTS IN THE WORK OF FOUR ITALIAN CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS
